Taxi Drivers

Taxi drivers are in a particularly difficult position:

• they drive long distances and for long periods of time – often during unsocial hours or on unfamiliar roads
• they are covered by additional legal and local authority regulations
• their income relies on their ability to drive

In common with other people who drive for a living they are also aware that they only have one license – driving offences committed in any circumstances can affect their livelihood. They must drive when they are off-duty with the care that they would while they are working.

I have successfully represented professional drivers both in the courts and in local authority hearings. I am familiar with the legal and regulatory requirements placed on taxi drivers and I can help.
